yeah it's typo lol I would have killed everything really fast if I was topping off with salt water!

I've got a little 3 gallon pico as well with 3 sexy shrimp. I'll post pics as soon as I can find my camera...

Well, my camera seems to have disappeared from the face of the earth, but until I somehow find it, I can tell you sexy shrimp are definitely a great idea for a pico

You don't have to worry about any fish mistaking them for food and they're easy to find.
I bought three about a week ago, and since I've added them, they haven't left their featherduster alone for more than five minutes. They sit on the tube right at the front of the tank and swivel all day long.

that was my plan for this pico. I wanted to have like 5 sexy shrimp. it's so cute when sexy shrimp are in groups... they wiggle their booties together! hehe

Yep. Five is what I'm going for, too... I'm just waiting for my LFS to get in a couple more
